Title: Can't send anything through Coppermine...
Post by: Elijahg on January 15, 2005, 02:36:52 PM
Hi,
I have tried to setup my Coppermine installation to use SMTP to send emails. But when I try to send one, I get:

Ran into problems sending Mail. Response: 550 : Helo command rejected: You are not smtp.dsl.pipex.com

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Please provide the URL and a test user/pwd (non-admin).

550 means your message was blocked by the smtp server as it was trying to RELAY through it without permission.

check your email settings and specify the correct smtp server.  You should be using the SMTP server of your webhost where your site is hosted.

What if anything did you configure in your coppermine configuration regarding smtp/email?

Did you try with nothing configured (this would try the default settings of the host, which are usually correct if your host permits you to send email from scripts).

If the smtp server requires authentication, you would need to edit the user and password fields in the same file where you specified the stmp server name.
